An amazing list of informations today.

As to the last one, it's a little bit weird. Of course, those "British scientists" are just comic book heroes for the media. But insisting on "general consensus of scientists", which this #7 does, is also stupid. Virtually no media reader can tell the difference between "consensus" and the latest, maybe revolutionary, physics achievements and discoveries. Even the physicists. If they could, it could be already an "established fact". But Dunning/Crueger successfully prevent average humans from having any meaningful opinion. We are just a "general public", and we should shut up and listen. Not to the media, though.

1 = Amazing. With the single example of the frames from 'Mulan' - which was pretty similar, in EVERY other case, the original frames look crisp, better & sharper - with the modernization being blurry, with too much color smearing the details. So ... yuck for the 'modernizing'.

And point 7 = Could be summed up as 'fishing for clicks by shovelling out garbage', since you can find some wing-nut spewing extreme speculative opinions if you look hard enough.
